ABSTRACT: With the increasing applications of radioactivity measurements in the nuclear industry, this paper focuses on the rapid identification, ease of operation, and low power consumption of portable nuclear isotope identifiers. Leveraging the excellent performance, ease of software portability, and open-source nature of embedded Linux systems, this research addresses key aspects such as spectrum data filtering, peak finding, false peak detection, and multi-isotope recognition. This system ensures portability while enabling long-duration measurements and accurate identification of radioactive isotopes under various measurement conditions.
